I have eliminated the hardcopy newspaper from my life because of its expense, which is tragic in my mind. The loss of local reporters and scaling back of longtime features, especially the Op/Ed page is also a terrible loss to the community. I don't mind using the electronic version of the BN, but it's very frustrating to use and needs some housekeeping of its ease of use features. Many of the little triangle links need to be more accurate in opening items. Section links would be useful too.

Who designed this for Android? Search text is dark grey on black background. You cannot read the results. Search itself is not good, pulling old results before today's news - if it finds today at all. Scrolling stories it's black text on a black gradient and you can only see half of the top sentence describing the article. You have to click each article to see what it's about. Total junk app and a waste of time. My family pays money for this? Garbage.

Horrible, horrible app. On my Android phone, it says I'm logged in but won't let me access the articles. Tried all the obvious solutions, delete, reload, with no luck. On my Android tablet, the sections come up only as pictures with no captions. The e-edition is blank. No option there cause it's completely unavailable to me. Customer service is foreign and after 15 minutes with them, got hung up on. Nothing ever got resolved. My options are to use the website or cancel my subscription.

Fails to open. Frustrating is an understatement. Times are tough for everyone and it's a wonderful and selfless move by the Buffalo News to share the covid-19 info for free with everyone. The only problem is that if the app won't open what good is free content? I'm just a sucker who actually pays for a subscription for an app that won't open. I would rate negative 2 stars given the opportunity.

This app is terrible. When you're reading an article, it freezes and shuts down. They recently updated it and now I can't even get that far!!! As soon as I click an article, it freezes and shuts down. I don't have any problems with any other apps, except this one. It's by far the worst app!!! Please upgrade this app Mr. Buffett!!!

Terrible redesign of the app layout. What happened to the individual sections for Bill's, Sabres, national & local sports? Now they're all together with very limited past days articles. And when I click on an article in the email BN sends me, it doesn't open with the app? Takes me to web page we're o gave to resign in each time? Please put more $'s into this app and fix it. I was much happier with the previous version

At a time when nobody agrees on what the other is doing, it's good to read a local newspaper that I feel is honest, if not a bit biased towards the left, but mostly honest & fair in their reporting. Yes, they could tone down the anti Trump rhetoric & report some of the negative left news to be a more balanced publication, I think that would increase their readership & trust from both sides.

The app continues to say I have read my 'free' articles and refuses to open news though I am a paid subscriber. It often closes without reason also. Going on the web to read the News is a lousy solution but it does not deny me access, once signed in. FIX THIS IN APP!! Reading the E-version is very difficult also due to type sizes.
